The principle governing contested terrain is that if you let the enemy have it, you can get it, but if you try to get it you will lose it. If the enemy has occupied the contested terrain, move carefully and do not attack him. Feign retreat and withdraw. Set up flags and sound the drums, hasten to the enemy's most vital points. Drag brush behind the troops raise the dust to confuse the ears and eyes of the enemy. Separate off our best troops and lay them secretly in ambush. The enemy must come out to the rescue What he wants we give him. and what he abandons we take. This is the way of contested terrain.
